JOHN ROBERTSON'S CONCERNS: <br />A standard Zone A length is 2/3 of the runway length. In this in- <br />stance, Zone A is 2200' in length based on a 3300' runway. A degree <br />of latitude is permitted allowing for zone boundaries to follow pro- <br />perty lines and natural or man-made boundaries. <br />The reason why the lot at the corner of Peridot and 150th Lane N.W. <br />has been included in Zone A is that the streets form a natural boun- <br />dary for Zone A. Additionally, if that parcel were not included in <br />Zone A and recommended to be acquired , it would be the single struc- <br />ture on that block, an undesireable situation for both the airport and <br />the homeowner. <br />A portion of Mr. Robertson's property, including a portion of the <br />structure, would be included in a standard Zone A of 2200'. A factor <br />in our original recommendation is that Mr. Robertson's home would be <br />one of a cluster of three homes remaining south of 151st Avenue and <br />east of Co. 56. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Revise Zone A boundary placing Mr. Robertson's property in Zone A. <br />The status of all properties with existing structures which fall <br />within a standard Zone A configuration would then be recommended for <br />acquisition. <br />RESPONSE TO ANOKA COUNTY COMMENTS: <br />The proposed Airport Zoning Ordinance specifically prohibits sanitary <br />landfills, waste disposal sites and certain other non -compatible land <br />uses within Zone C. It is the foremost intent of the City to comply <br />with applicable State and Federal criteria, rules, regulations, and <br />laws regarding airports. State statutes and regulations as well as <br />federal regulations identify landfills as non -compatible uses and <br />airport hazards. Guidance is provided by the Federal Aviation Admin- <br />istrations's (FAA) Order 5200.5 entitled "FAA Guidance Concerning <br />Sanitary Landfills on or near Airports". It states; "Some airports <br />are not under the jurisdiction of the community or local governing <br />body having control of land usage in the vicinity of the airport. In <br />those cases, the airport owner should use its influence and best <br />efforts to close or control landfill operations within the general <br />vicinity of the airport. <br />FAA should advise airport owners against locating, permitting or <br />concurring in the location of a landfill on or in the vicinity of <br />airports." <br />FAA Advisory Circular (AC 150/5300-4B CHGS further identifies sanitary <br />landfills as airport hazards.
